I wonder whether it's a lone survivor or was it born an orphan?

It was a Darwinian battle where it killed all the others so it could be the apex predator.
 
I think Gray is largely over rated on these boards.

He is a very good player but I think those putting him in the elite category are only focusing on the attacking aspects of the game.

His work off of the ball is not even close to the true elites.

Things lole defensive running, gut running to create options, tackling, shepherding, kicking clutch goals, game saving marks, tackles and defensive plays, even flying the flag.

If you compare him to someone like Wanganeen, Wilson or even a Primus in these categories he doesn't even come close. Not saying Wilson and Primus are better overall (personally I would pick both of them over Gray but I understand why many would disagree with that) but truly elite players are the complete package and Gray is not (I think this is why we have phased him out of the midfield, only to be used when we need to risk all out attack much like the Hawks did with S Burgoyne)

Add the attacking game of Robbie to the workrate and team care of Timmy Giniver and then you would have a champion.

We have not moved Grey from the midfild because he doesn't meet the 1% quoters.

This is bullcrap, unless you have a direct line to the coaches! They want him in the midfield, but his groins cant handle it, and thus his pace & sustained input is compromised. Otherwise he plays midfield for certain!
 
It's probably an AFL thing, ie they can't refer to those Magpies as Magpies.

What a crock of shit. They can't refer to another team in another competition by it's name in case Collingwood's feelings are hurt?
